Amber Simpson, BFA, HIS, is from Gainesville, FL. She has a Bachelors of Fine Arts degree from East Tennessee State University and was licensed in Tennessee in 2008 and has also held an HIS license in Florida from 2010-2013. Her career really interested her because she loves the idea of helping patients to better understand loved ones and brining a sense of improvement to one’s overall health.

What she loves most about saving hearing lives is the joy of watching a patient hear things that haven’t been heard in many years…Hearing a patient say they can again listen to music and understand the words or maybe a grandchild they had never understood before and now can.

Amber wants her patients to know that her and her fellow staff members strive to help everyone to hear better and also get to know them on a personal level, they hope to bring them the best care possible and always keep an open mind on how to help improve how they are hearing.

For Amber, weekends are all about family and spending time together, or having friends over for a cookout. Her family loves anything that involves the outdoors, like camping, hiking or going to a baseball game. Amber’s hobbies consist of playing volleyball with her husband in a sand league, taking her toddler to the park, and cooking for her large family.

After living in Davenport, Iowa,  Dorthey and her husband, Dr. Larry Norwood, moved to Madisonville, TN  and opened Norwood Chiropractic,which served the community for many years.  Being natives of McMinn County, they moved back to Athens in 2003.  Dorthey began working at Audibel in Sept. of 2003. She is a member of Zion Hill Baptist Church in Englewood.  She enjoys spending time with family and friends.
